Certainly not most packages. Just those "Core"-type of packages whose features cannot be avoided at run-time, such as essential system programs that are executed always and on every installation. Or popular apps that are *really* *really* widely and very actively used with many of their features. > Several QA group members run with > updates-testing enabled and so get all packages (that they have > installed) Which is not equal to "most packages". > which go through updates-testing.

And they simply don't and can't notice all bugs and regressions. Audacious 2.1 in F12 development apparently hasn't seen real testing before F12 was released. Since then, bug reports have been flowing in. Same with Audacious 2.2 that became sort of a mandatory upgrade, so I could reduce the patch count. Only after it had been released as stable update, the bug reporting started again. Too few users have updates-testing enabled. Too few bug reporters are brave enough to enable updates-testing for a bug-fix referred to in bugzilla. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
